- … that it delivers a defensible comparison when the parametric assumptions are shaky, and it does so with surprisingly little power loss under many real distributions — the Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test is only marginally less efficient than the t-test even when normality holds, and far more trustworthy when it does not.
This sourceShows that the Wilcoxon two-sample test retains high asymptotic efficiency relative to the t-test across continuous location-shift distributions, including under normality.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
